Motherhood is a rewarding yet challenging journey that often leaves moms feeling overwhelmed. According to the Motherly’s 2021 State of Motherhood Survey, a staggering 93% of mothers have experienced burnout, with 16% feeling this way constantly. As someone who has walked this path, I understand the silent struggles that come with motherhood. That’s why I created Growing + Glowing, a community dedicated to empowering mothers through self-care, budgeting, productivity, and overall wellness.
Why Self-Care Matters
Self-care is more than occasional treats; it’s a form of self-preservation. It requires consistent effort to manage stress and maintain health. By prioritizing self-care, you not only enhance your well-being but also become more effective in your roles and present your best self to the world.
How to Start Your Self-Care Journey
- Prioritize Your Needs: Make self-care a daily habit. Whether it’s a few minutes of meditation or an evening walk, these small acts can significantly impact your mental and physical health.
- Join a Supportive Community: At Growing + Glowing, we offer a tribe of like-minded individuals who support and uplift one another. Surround yourself with people who encourage your growth and glowing.
- Daily Affirmations: Begin your day with positive affirmations. Repeat these in the mirror to set a positive tone for your day: “You are strong, capable, and deserving of happiness.”
- Deep Inner Work: Engage in activities that promote inner peace and self-discovery. This could include journaling, therapy, or attending workshops focused on personal growth.
- Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway: Embrace challenges and step out of your comfort zone. Growth often happens when you push past fear and try new things.
